Chapter 362: Shock
When Qualcomm sent a negotiation team to Zi'an City to negotiate with the negotiation team of Feixun Technology Company and discuss the establishment of a new company, Jiang Xinwei asked the Technology Department to immediately send a batch of newly produced mobile phones to all the members of Qualcomm's negotiation team. The mobile phones had been contacted in advance with the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, and Feixun Technology had purchased mobile phone numbers from the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, paid the mobile phone network access fee, and opened up international long-distance calls for them.
At this time, the mobile phone network access fee is not low, requiring nearly 30,000 yuan, which is the income of ordinary workers for seven or eight years without eating or drinking. And international calls are more than six yuan per minute, which is simply a money-burning thing.
Of course, these mobile phones are only for these Yankees to use in Huaxia, and when they return to China, Feixun Technology will take them back.
Meng Xiaofeng, a person who knows the process of mobile phone research, was very surprised the moment he got the mobile phone, and these guys from the United States were naturally dumbfounded when they got the mobile phone, and after listening to the staff's repeated explanations, they didn't believe that this thing was actually a mobile phone, and the brick mobile phone they used was a kind of equipment.
Shocked, they picked up the phone one after another and tried it, and began to eagerly call their families in the United States, colleagues or leaders in the company. It wasn't until a familiar voice came from the phone that they believed they were really holding a mobile phone.
After making a phone call with his family, he couldn't wait to ask the people of Feixun Technology: "Mr. Wang, is this telephone really produced by your company?"
The leader of the negotiation team, surnamed Wang, said proudly: "Of course. It took our company almost a year to develop. Mr. Yorkposh, could you please give us a mention of Jianyi after using it for a while, and tell us how you feel about using your phone?"
York Bosh brought this phone more than three years ahead of schedule (in fact, the form factor alone was more than three years ahead of schedule, and the processor peripherals inside or something. At least five years in advance) looked over and over again, and said with a sigh: "I really didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, how could you design and manufacture such a good mobile phone? This is far ahead of us in the United States, ahead of Europe." I dare say it's the most advanced phone in the world!"
So did Yorkbosh, and so did his colleagues and men. They didn't feel any inconvenience when they used that kind of brick-like phone in China, and even felt convenient because they could talk on the phone anytime and anywhere, but now they know what is really good after using this phone.
For a while, they all couldn't put down the mobile phone, and when many people were still talking to relatives and friends in China on the phone, some people who were anxious began to ask about the price of the mobile phone, asked when it would be on the market, and asked if they could buy a few mobile phones to return to China this time.
The leader of the negotiation team, surnamed Wang, saw that they were so enthusiastic. He was very proud in his heart, knowing that his company had another cash cow, he proudly told the other party that they could buy as many units as they wanted, as long as they paid for it, and sued them for the friendship between the two sides. Feixun Technologies gave each of them a discounted price, which was $2,000 per phone. And as long as Qualcomm is willing to provide them with a written guarantee, they can apply for a loan of $20,000, which means that Feixun Technologies can give 10 mobile phones to each of them on credit.
The negotiation team at Qualcomm was overjoyed by a humane decision, and began to ask York Bosh to vouch for them, after all, they didn't bring much cash with them when they went abroad, and many of them brought more than $10,000. But it's not enough, and I want to buy a few more mobile phones and resell them to relatives and friends.
$20,000 is not an astronomical amount for these mid-level and above employees of Qualcomm, and seeing how eager these employees were, York Bosh made a symbolic phone call to the other executives of the company, and readily agreed to the request of his employees.
These employees are even more excited. I began to call back to China to report the good news, and asked my friends if they wanted to buy this revolutionary mobile phone, and repeatedly assured the performance of the mobile phone on the phone, especially emphasizing how small and beautiful the phone was, far better than those bricks.
Seeing this scene, the team leader surnamed Wang was happy: Hehe, Mr. Jiang is still highly predictable, and even this point has been calculated, and this time hundreds of mobile phones have been sold without saying anything. If it weren't for the greeting with the post and telecommunications department in advance, and if it weren't for the post and telecommunications department's emergency expansion of the mobile base station, today's effect would definitely not be so good. Today's shock will certainly have a tremendous impact on our subsequent negotiations.
In fact, in order to give these Yankees a big surprise, Feixun Technology Company also contacted the post and telecommunications department to urgently expand the mobile base station here at the headquarters of Feixun Technology Company.
People who have seen analog mobile base stations know that analog mobile base stations are much larger than digital mobile base stations, and analog mobile base stations can only allow a mobile phone to make a phone at the same time, while the capacity of a carrier frequency of digital mobile base stations is several times that of them, and four to eight mobile phones can be allowed to make calls at the same time. It is impossible for this kind of small base station to allow so many Yankees to make calls at the same time, so it can only be expanded and more carrier frequencies can be added.
As soon as their requirements were put forward, the post and telecommunications department immediately dispatched elite soldiers to expand the capacity overnight, which ensured that every mobile phone of the Yankees could be dialed out at the same time.
It was only after York Bosh himself calmed down that he had to sigh at the good public relations done by the Flying Technologies Company: Didn't the Qualcomm employees, including him, doubt the technical capabilities of the Flying Technologies Company? Didn't they agree before going abroad that they were unwilling to include the telephones, pagers, and program-controlled switches of the Flying Technologies Company in the scope of cooperation? Aren't they only willing to cooperate with the Flying Technologies in scientific research? But what about now? The new products that people come up with are far better than the products of European and American companies, and the difference is revolutionary, looking at their mobile phones, can you still doubt their technology?
Believing that their technology is good, they will inevitably lose the psychological advantage they had when they set off during the negotiation, and they have to admit that Feixun Technology Company can not only be on an equal footing with Qualcomm in scientific research, but also lead in patents, production technology, and new product research and development.
They can make such a good mobile phone in such a short time, and it is not impossible for Feixun Technology to surpass Motorola and Intel in time.
York Bosh was faintly anxious in his heart: "Their ability is so strong, how can our negotiation team complete the negotiation task assigned to us by the company?"
Not only was York Bosh anxious, but other employees also slowly understood the implicit meaning of this mobile phone: Feixun Technology Company was far from the company they imagined before they came, and they came to talk about cooperation not as a handout, but perhaps as a begging. People have this ability, not only can cooperate with our Qualcomm company, but also cooperate with other companies in Europe, and even their own R&D and production is also feasible, and their development does not need to rely on Qualcomm at all.
They silently packed away their phones, thinking that they should be cooperative in the next negotiations.
At a time when the employees of Qualcomm's negotiation team are suffering from gains and losses, Feixun Technology has already announced the development and production of a new type of mobile phone in a high-profile manner, and has also held a global new product launch conference like a large international company.
On October 18, 1992, Feixun Technology Co., Ltd. announced the grand launch of the "Dream 001" mobile phone in New York, London, Moscow, Hong Kong, Japan, Huaxia Guojing, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and other places.
Although this kind of conference is far from being as earth-shattering and not as grand as Apple's iPhone release in the 21st century, it has caused more sensation than those conferences.
First, the Dream 001 mobile phone is a revolutionary mobile phone, which is not only more convenient than a fixed phone, but also lighter than the brick mobile phone used today, which can better reflect the elegance and nobility of the person who uses the phone.
Second, this mobile phone was not developed and produced in the United States, nor in Europe, or even in Japan, but in Huaxia, which many technical masters look down on. This technology is not a little higher than that of European and American countries, but a whole generation higher, how can it not make people surprised? How can it not make people suspicious, how can it not let people not inquire about the truth of the matter, and more people will pay attention to this matter.
Thirdly, the launch location of this event is also different. For example, when large international companies in Europe and the United States hold new product launches, they are generally held in the United States or Europe, and there are very few that even go to Japan to hold press conferences, let alone Saudi Arabia and Moscow. However, this time, Feixun Technology Company unexpectedly conducted it in these places, which made many people find it intriguing, and many people are thinking about why they did it.
……
Before the press conference ended, the news in the media was already hot, not only those professional media in the electronic product category were in a tirade, but also the "New York Times", "Times", "Stuttgart" and other social newspapers and magazines were also scrambling. Television and radio stations carried out all-round reports at the first time
